Since I joined this forum on my search for 9J information it only seems right to post a few pictures of my most recent acquisition.

I see Aaron and I are kindred spirits. My 9J came from HGR as well! How about you Ron?

Nice. I'm just about to buy this one. Any recommendations on price?
Can anyone tell me what spindle this is? and what is that attachment on the bed? and what year?

I bought mine for essentially scrap price, no clue what it's real value is.
Spindle should be Brown and Sharp taper 10.
Vintagemachinery.org has loads of info including original documents that have been digitized.
I believe I found the documents regarding age in this forum so where. I would attempt a search you should find them.
